But you would deal another economic blow to China at a time where they've already got enough problems.

So it's like I get why the U.S.

would have an itchy trigger finger on this one.

But I just don't think it's I think it's so high risk and so likely to be unpopular in the region.

I doubt it's going to happen, but we'll see.

Yeah, I think that they're probably stronger than we give them credit for because what you would be doing, you wouldn't deal like some sort of like gut punch that is likely to take out China.

You just make energy costs a little bit higher, but they're, look, energy is at the foundation of everything, but nobody on planet Earth is doing a better job of spinning up new power than China.

So China's way too smart now

way too disciplined.

If something were to really damage them, it would be that the continued global pressure on China as the US moves away from them, begins to do things at home, as the US pressures other people like Canada not to build direct relationships with China.

that there you could see like a just slow erosion of Xi's power.

And then somebody comes into China that is more, I mean, look, you could get somebody who's 10 times worse.

Let's be very clear about that.

That's why this is such a dangerous game to play regime change.

But if you got somebody that was more Deng Xiaoping in temperament where it's like, yes, we'll shoot a bunch of people in Tiananmen Square.

I think that was Deng.

Don't hold me to that though.

But at the same time, we also understand the free market is really the godsend.

And so it'll be interesting to see how that plays out.

But I'm not expecting just as I think for all of the turmoil happening in America, there's I don't think anything acute is going to break America in the next.
